    Story Behind the Song
    House of Cards is a song about relationships...how you have to give and take. It's up to both people to make a relationship work...but it's a delicate thing! You can build what seems to be a solid foundation...and work really hard and patiently at building it into something beautiful - but in the blink of an eye...one mistake, the whole thing can come crashing down around you! It may be possible to rebuild it...but you gotta ask yourself - is it worth it!!!

    Lyrics
    I, took a sideways glance at life...and it worked for a while. Things seemed different, they seemed almost half sane, and it made me smile...but just for a while!
    You, cast a watchful eye my way, still you dont see. I guess i'm older, but i'm not much wiser, more fool me!
    In time, the rules begin to change
    But the game remains the same
    But i wont shoulder all the blame!
    Now we end up here, we both rushed in where angels fear
    We built a house of cards
    Now we're running scared, thise king of hearts was not prepared to stand alone!
    We, we're our own worst enemies
    Got our souls on show
    You plant that seed, a seed of doubt and then watch it grow!

    This house of cards, it all came falling down!
